The 7th "6x6" art exhibition is going on right now at Rochester Contemporary Art Center (RoCo)
. This exhibit began as a one-time fundraiser in 2008 but has returned every year since then due to its incredible success. 6x6 is RoCo's only major fundraiser. All artworks are offered for sale--anonymously--to the public for $20, with all proceeds going to support the Art Center. The artist's names are revealed to the buyer upon purchase.
In 2014 the show has grown to include over 6,700 artworks
from all 50 states and 65 countries.
Here are a few of the top picks from this year's show sent to us by Bleu Cease, Executive Director and curator of the gallery...
The 6x6 show will remain on display through July 13, 2014. As of right now 1,944 artworks have been sold. RoCo needs to sell 2,500 artworks to reach their fundraising goal.
